Chapter 194: Coping strategies

Xue Bing kept pressing his head with his hands. This action even affected Zhao Yun, and even he frowned tightly. The hall suddenly became very quiet, leaving only the sound of medical soldiers constantly helping Mi Fang with wounds.

Mi Fang grinned. The medical soldier hurt him when he used alcohol to disinfect him. Just as he was about to make the medical soldier lighter, he suddenly heard Xue Bing ask, "So, Zi Fang is not sure about the specific strength of Cao's army?"

Mi Fang said: "The General of the Mo is indeed unknown how many Cao troops there are. In the opinion of the General of the Mo is, the one he encountered is just the vanguard of the Cao army."

Upon hearing this, Xue Bing kept beating the case with his hand on the table, and kept chanting: "Vanguard troops, a large number of cavalry, Xiahou!" Although he kept muttering, he still felt that he had no clue and finally said: "Then, Zifang doesn't know who the Cao army leads? He only knows that the Cao army's vanguard's surname is Xiahou?"

Mi Fang nodded and replied, "That's right!" After saying that, he answered as if he was thinking about something, "By the way, the general was almost captured by Cao's army, so he found that the vanguard of Cao's army, named Xiahou, was not Xiahou Dun!"

Xue Bing did not answer, just nodded, then waved his hand to signal Mi Fang to go down to rest.

When Mi Fang retreated, Zhao Yunze said, "The pioneer surnamed Xiahou is not Xiahou Dun, who is that? Who is the capable man under Cao Cao's men? "He asked this, but considering the importance of Guanzhong to Cao Cao, Cao Cao would not send a wine bag as the current leader.

Xue Bing smiled and said, "I think it is the sons and nephews of Xiahou Dun or Xiahou Yuan. The Cao Cao family's surname is Xiahou, and the Xiahou family has gained power because of this, and there are many capable people. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Cao army's vanguard's surname is Xiahou.

Now I don’t know who the leader is!”

Zhao Yun lowered his head and thought for a while. He replied: "In Yun's opinion, he can drive the Xiahou as the vanguard. This chief general of the Cao army should be also a member of the Cao family."

Xue Bing nodded and agreed. He filtered the generals under Cao Cao one by one in his head, and said, "Even if he is not a member of the Cao family, he must be a famous general in Cao Wei. But this Cao army will not be easy to deal with.

"After saying that, he took out the map from the desk, unfolded it on the desk, and connected Mi Fang's words in his mind, and carefully observed Feng Sa's area.

When Zhao Yun saw Xue Bing take out the map, he said, "I don't know how Zihan thought he should deal with it? Otherwise, our army will return to deal with the Cao army on this road to protect Chang'an.

"Zhao Yun said this because the Cao army happened to be north of Chang'an. If it was attacked and lost, Tongguan would return to Cao Wei's hands. If so.

Then Xue Bing's plan would be completely failed, and the Sichuan army, which had lost the East Gate, would completely lose its strategic advantage. Complete retreat to Sichuan would probably be the best result.

Xue Bing thought for a while, and finally said, "Chang'an City is strong. There are General Zhang Ren and more than 10,000 troops guarding him inside.

Moreover, Mi Zifang said before that he had sent his troops to scatter to Chang'an. It was thought that General Zhang Ren had received the news at this time and would make preparations for defense early. Therefore, Chang'an is not very dangerous all the way. Now, the most dangerous thing is you and me.

”

Zhao Yun said: "How do you say this?"

Xue Bing said: "Zilong and I led our army to the heart of Guanzhong and headed straight for Qinchuan. We intend to attack Xu Huang's army from the east. However, we have fewer troops in this line of army, and even if we attack Qinchuan, we thought it was echoing, not the main attack.

But a Cao army suddenly appeared behind our army. According to the news, its military strength was definitely several times higher than our side. In this way, our army was trapped in a state of being attacked on both sides, and both sides, regardless of that side, were several times stronger than our side!"

Zhao Yun nodded, after all, what Xue Bing said just now was very clear. He made a detailed analysis of the strength of both sides. The result is that from any aspect, the army and horse led by Xue Bing and Zhao Yun were indeed in a very dangerous situation.

For a moment, the hall was quiet again, and the two of them were speechless for a while. Finally, Zhao Yun said, "What can Zihan do to deal with it?"

Xue Bing said: "There is only one strategy now!"

Zhao Yun thought for a while and asked, "Is it because he was going back to the army? He had to deal with the newly arrived Cao army?" He had such a plan, but there was no problem.

If the two of them return to the army, although their troops are not as strong as possible, Zhao Yun is still confident to drag them all in the area between Feng Sa and Jingyang. At least it will prevent him from continuing to move forward in the hinterland of Guanzhong and threaten the area that the King of Hanzhong had just captured.

Moreover, even if the two of them did not lead their troops to Qinchuan, the main army of King Hanzhong and the Hanzhong troops led by Wei Yan might not be able to defeat Xu Huang.

It’s just that there is no support from all the troops, and when attacking the specific location, we have to reconsider it.

However, Xue Bing did not agree with Zhao Yun's proposal and whispered: "You can't go back to the army. If our army returns, the Qinchuan line will be dragged for a long time. The longer the time is delayed, the more unfavorable it will be for our army.

Therefore, we must defeat Xu Huang's Cao's army in the shortest time! After all, according to the latest information received, the war in Xiliang was not very smooth, and the possibility of encircling the north of Qinchuan from Xiliang is basically no longer there.

If we are less military and local support, the most likely result is to continue to fall into a stalemate between the two sides!"

After pausing, he continued: "Now, we must break this situation, otherwise we will have to retreat to the Sichuan because of the supply of food and grass." This is a problem that we have to consider.

Although the Hanzhong royal army seized many cities and counties in the Northern Expedition, and even the Yongzhou land was mostly taken away, the most important supply of military rations was still to be sent to the front line through a long supply line.

If the Cao army dragged the war until the supply of food and grass was not enough, the Sichuan army's only choice was to retreat back to Sichuan as soon as possible when there was still surplus grain. These places that were finally seized will all be returned to Cao Wei's hands.

Xue Bing continued: "So, the only way now is to divide the troops.

The troops were divided into two groups, and the main force continued to advance towards Qinchuan, while the other unit could only divide a few troops, but they had to drag a large number of Cao troops here!" As he said, his fingers kept lit the map, and the sound became louder and louder, but gradually he became more and more powerful.

Because he knew in his heart that he had less than 10,000 soldiers and horses at his hand, and without affecting his basic combat power, the few soldiers could only be divided into more than 2,000 or less than 3,000 soldiers.

Using this kind of force to fight against tens of thousands of elite Cao's army is no different from dying.

But before he finished speaking, Zhao Yun stood up suddenly, then clasped his fists in front of Xue Bing, and shouted loudly: "Yun is willing to lead this army to block Cao's army. He must tell Cao's army that he cannot continue to move forward!"

Xue Bing was stunned, but he didn't expect Zhao Yun to stand up so quickly. After all, except for the division of troops, he didn't even say a little response. Zhao Yun stood up so quickly?

When he looked up, Xue Bing realized when he saw Zhao Yun's resolute expression. It turned out that Zhao Yun thought of the key and danger of this battle, so he decided to lead the army to the scene.

"What's this? Protect me?" Xue Bing smiled bitterly and shook her head, then said, "Zilong should not go lightly!"

Zhao Yunze said: "Zihan wants to lead his troops to Qinchuan. Who else can go besides Yun?"

Xue Bing continued to shake his head and smiled, "It's not Bing to lead troops to Qinchuan! Zilong can also lead troops to continue advancing, and he will lead a group of troops to resist Cao's army!"

Zhao Yun heard this and said anxiously: "Zi Han is the chief general of this army. How can you make the chief general violate the danger? Zi Han should not say more, just go with the clouds!"

Xue Bing had to smile bitterly, and finally couldn't say, "What kind of trick does Zilong have to respond to Cao's army?"

Zhao Yun was stunned when he heard this, and said that Xue Bing had allowed him to lead his troops to the enemy Cao army. Without thinking about it, he spoke, "What's the trick? Just stick to it!"

Xue Bing shook his head and said, "In this way, Guanzhong will be in danger! Zilong should not say more, just leave by yourself!"

Zhao Yun was dissatisfied when he heard this, and only thought in his heart that Xue Bing wanted to take the dangerous place, so he said, "What kind of trick does Zi Han have?"

Xue Bing was stunned when she heard this, but she didn't expect that Zhao Yun would ask him like this, and she didn't know how to answer. It turned out that he had no clever plan in his heart, but he just understood that if he insisted on the city, the number of places in Guanzhong would not be guaranteed.

After all, Cao's army has many soldiers, and whether it is divided into circling or concentrated attacks, there is no way to defend the terrain of Guanzhong, which has no strong city to rely on.

Therefore, he had long understood that if he wanted to hold on to this Cao army, he could only use other tactics. However, he had not thought about how to act.

But now Zhao Yun asked, if he couldn't tell a good plan, he might not agree to lead his troops to the ground. He was thinking quickly, but he hoped to come up with a good solution.

Just as I was having a headache, I suddenly felt my legs numb again, but I had been kneeling for a while and my legs couldn't stand it. So I moved my legs.

Unexpectedly, he moved, but he hit the case. When the case was touched, the thing on it was shaken and slipped down from the case.

When Xue Bing saw it, she smiled bitterly and wanted to pick it up. She was about to reach out to get it, but she didn't know what she saw. She was stunned, staring blankly at the picture falling next to the case.

It turned out that when Xue Bing touched her just now, she just happened to knock down several maps on the case and fell down.

At this moment, a picture happened to spread out after falling down. Xue Bing stretched out his hand and happened to see the inside of the picture. There was a flash of inspiration in his head, but suddenly he thought of a solution.

Picking up the picture, Xue Bing smiled and said to Zhao Yun: "It just happened that he thought of a way. Although he could not stop Cao's army, it was enough to prevent him from moving forward quickly.
